How has 1200 W 7TH ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 9 Los Angeles disclosures for 1200 W 7TH ST, covering report years 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025.

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 100 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: 100 is the top of the scale. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 100 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. In Los Angeles, 63% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. 1200 W 7TH ST's 72.0 kBtu/ft² across 769,933 sq ft works out to about 55.4 billion Btu (16,246 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 199.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 15,514 thousand gallons of water for the year.
